Trends in middle - and upper - level tropospheric humidity from NCEP reanalysis data
It is arguably time to tackle the tropospheric humidity issue, but this should be done from the perspective of comparing multiple data sources and assessing the uncertainty, before publishing trend analyses in the context of saying something about climate change.
«Trends in middle - and upper - level tropospheric humidity from NCEP reanalysis data» by Garth Paltridge, Albert Arking and Michael Pook
On Feb 26, Garth Paltridge, Albert Arking and Michael Pook's report on a re-examination of NCEP reanalysis data on upper tropospheric humidity was published online by Theoretical and Applied Climatology.
I do not know the accuracy of the NCEP reanalysis data on upper tropospheric humidity, but the direct measurement of humidity by weather balloons seems preferable to the very indirect determination from satellite data.
Apropos of which, in the specific context of long - term trends in tropospheric humidity, it seemed to us that an advantage of the NCEP re-analysis over other re-analyses (over ERA 40 for instance) is that it does not complicate the issue by introducing various types of satellite humidity data into the record as they become available.
The National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) reanalysis data on tropospheric humidity are examined for the period 1973 to 2007.
